Abstract

Asynchronous circuits is a discipline in which the theory of concurrency is applied to hardware design. This paper presents an overview of a design framework in which Petri nets are used as the main behavioral model for specification. Techniques for synthesis, analysis and formal verification of asynchronous circuits are reviewed and discussed.
